Hi, my name is Ken Howald. I enjoy turning wood on the lathe. I purchased a large buckeye burl and ended up making wet shaving sets for my son and son-in-law for Christmas. I really enjoyed working with the buckeye...so...now I am considering selling the shaving sets I make. Everyone groan in unison, I would like your input as to what type of knots I should use for my sets as well as what would be a good price point for starting out. Thank you for any suggestions that you might have. ken

Hi Ken. Maybe you've already done it, but I'd take a look around at The Golden Nib webstore. Tony is his name and he sells just about every type and size of shaving brush knot for the do-it-yourself crowd. I'd even recommend giving him a call if you might want to discuss buying a variety for resale purposes. Just my thoughts. Nice looking brush and razor!

Agreed. TGN has a wide offering of knots, and at a good quality/price ratio.
